[00:00:04.530]Hello and welcome to the July edition of Inside Nebraska Business highlighting some of the big
[00:00:10.530]achievements from the spring.
[00:00:12.630]In April, we hosted our largest ever annual Advisory Board Award Celebration.
[00:00:18.060]Board Chair Lisa Smith and I presented the 2022 awards to those leading the future of business.
[00:00:25.560]Bryan Health received the corporate leadership award and shared insight from a consultant.
[00:00:31.170]He says I've never consulted in the Midwest before I always heard about Midwestern values and work ethic.
[00:00:37.800]He said today I saw it for the first time.
[00:00:40.260]He said I saw we before me one team one purpose, no whining, just put your head down and get through it.
[00:00:47.430]What does grit really mean?
[00:00:49.620]The Young Alumni Award went to Luke Hansen.
[00:00:52.770]We've realized that the problem that we are trying to solve at CompanyCam is to help contractors build trust
[00:00:59.190]through truth and transparency.
[00:01:00.780]We are trying to help the best contractors succeed by building trust in the market with their customers.
[00:01:07.530]Jane Miller received the Business Leadership Award and spoke about Don Clifton.
[00:01:13.470]Well, my dad knew I love business.
[00:01:15.300]And my dad knew I loved teaching.
[00:01:17.550]And what he said was he said, think about going into Teachers College and Business College.
[00:01:23.580]That profound vision led to the Clifton Strengths Institute.
[00:01:27.090]They are raising, developing absolutely tremendous students.
[00:01:33.330]They're learning the differences in what makes a great business, what makes great jobs, and what makes an
[00:01:38.970]exceptional culture starts with people.
[00:01:42.650]And JoAnn Martin was honored posthumously with a Lifetime Achievement Award.
[00:01:48.740]I do recall from her conversation about as you find those things that you want to put your time into, you
[00:01:55.820]can't say yes to everything.
[00:01:57.560]You need to find those individual things that you're very passionate about.
[00:02:00.770]And for her, she articulated those three things to be her family personally and professionally; education has
[00:02:08.810]always been a huge focus for my mom and making sure that the next generation had more opportunities than
[00:02:14.330]the current.
[00:02:15.140]And then the last one is really mentoring and developing others in that next generation and the
[00:02:19.340]younger six especially women, but spending time to develop other people.
[00:02:23.810]Congratulations to our honorees.
[00:02:26.780]In May we announced a new partnership with Lincoln Public Schools.
[00:02:30.770]The newest focus program called Nebraska Business at Standing Bear High School will launch in fall 2023.
[00:02:38.060]We've talked about how to give students an experience from the moment that they enter to the moment they
[00:02:42.170]leave Standing Bear, even if they don't choose to become part of this focus program but have experiences
[00:02:48.470]at the College of Business and with University of Nebraska.
[00:02:51.200]Through hands on immersion experiences in early college pathways, the focus program will allow Standing Bear
[00:02:56.270]High School students to explore their passion and career opportunities in the areas of marketing,
[00:03:01.010]management, accounting, finance, supply chain and economics.
[00:03:04.820]There can be no more important work and learning that our students do.
[00:03:09.890]We also brought franchise back to Nebraska Business for students across campus.
[00:03:15.020]Lindsay Thompsen joined the college this spring to relaunch the Nebraska Franchise Club and franchising
[00:03:21.170]courses this fall, with help from successful franchise owners.
[00:03:25.730]Franchisors offer the chance to buy into a business under an established business model and trademark.
[00:03:33.320]Our goal is to support young entrepreneurs by helping them to start something, grow something and learn about
[00:03:40.370]franchising.
[00:03:42.080]Open to students of any major, the new franchising classes will show how franchising is wildly successful
[00:03:49.520]and accessible to everyone.
[00:03:52.439]Also coming this fall we are offering three Power Lunches for business professionals.
[00:03:57.629]Learn about positive leadership, unlocking motivation, and the five generation workplace.
[00:04:04.529]Additionally, we are kicking off our inaugural Nonprofit Management Institute designed to advance the
[00:04:12.264]success of your organization, whatever its size or mission.
[00:04:16.739]The three nondegree executive certificate tracks include nonprofit management, finance and fundraising
[00:04:24.597]and help refine the skills needed to make a larger and lasting impact.
[00:04:29.939]Mark your calendars for our annual Back to School Bash. Come back to campus to welcome students this fall and
[00:04:37.625]help celebrate our fifth anniversary in Hawks Hall.
[00:04:41.189]We hope to see you on campus for an event this fall.
[00:04:45.209]Thanks for joining us and Go Big Red
